Damien,

Let's hold off on the dictionaries until you are set up with eSpeak. Then I
propose that we make a dictionaries folder under eSpeak. Would you agree?

All the best,

Hi Cearbhall.

I can send you the dictionaries that I've compiled up to now but as the docs
are quite large I don't want to cause problems for the list. Could you send
an email address to damienmoconnor@xxxxxxxxxx

All the best

Damien.

Damien,

I congratulate you on your initiative in learning Irish this way. I am
assisting Ronan McGuirk who is leading a team to build an Irish synthesiser
using eSpeak and so I am keeping the correspondence on this topic to help
with the future development of the eSpeak project. 

I would really value a couple of examples of what you have managed to put
together as a translator / reference list so that I can be clear on what is
involved. 

All the best,


Cearbhall

Hi Cearbhall.

Basically, I'm learning Irish. I'm following the TEG a2 sylabus at the
moment. I Have a teacher who comes to my house once a week. If you visit
www.teg.ie you'll notice that apart from an english translation of the
sylabus and some other general information, there is nno english
translations of the actual lessons. I'm therefore having to create my own
notes e.g. grammar and my own dictionary. It's my intention to take the a2
exam next may and then move up to the next level. Whilst I understand the
"total emersion" principle, It doesn't work for me personally. I have to
understand what I'm saying and why I'm constructing sentenses in a
particular way and to do that, I need the english translation of what I'm
working with. I hope this clarifies things.

All the best

Damien.

Damien,

I would like to understand exactly what you doing. Would you like to explain
in more details?

If you created your own custom dictionary in MS Word would that solve the
problem?

All the best,
